For Pete’s Sake Day celebrates one example of a
‘minced oath’, where an offensive word or phrase is substituted by
something more acceptable in society. Other examples include ‘For crying
out loud!’, and ‘Sugar!’. Such euphemisms have been used for centuries
whenever people hit thumbs with hammers, burn hands on hot plates, or
sit on sharp things while in polite company. Why has Pete been singled
out for special attention? In the case of this particular minced
oath, Pete is likely to refer to St Peter. However, if there’s a Pete in
your life, why not do something for his sake? It doesn’t have to be
much – making him a cup of tea or a nice sandwich would be good! If you are Pete-less, perhaps you can celebrate by saying ‘For Pete’s Sake’ whenever you get an opportunity.

Wash yourselves and ye shall be clean; put away the wicked ways from your souls before Mine eyes; cease to do evil; learn to do well. Seek judgment, relieve the oppressed, consider the fatherless, and plead for the widow. Come then, and let us reason together, saith the Lord: Though your sins be as scarlet, I will make them white as snow; and though they be red like crimson, I will make them white as wool.
